NSO vs. Proliability

Hi there,

For a few years, I had my insurance with NSO. But, for some reason this past year, I had the hardest time getting them to acknowledge payment with my Mastercard. It was an absolute mess. So just said to heck with it and went with Proliability. Even after almost a year, I am still getting reminders from NSO, that my insurance is going to lapse. I even sent a certified letter to them stating that I had renewed my policy with another company.

Just my two cents...

Thanks OklaLPN.

Wow! That's odd for a company trying to get more consumers!

Thank you Iris!

Have had NSO for years w/o any problem.

Hi CollaborateRN,

I recently got a subpoena for a deposition for a case that happened six years ago, when I used to work as a registry. I could not get any help from the hospital where the incident occurred or from my former agency (which had new owners), so I called NSO and they where great in providing me with a lawyer (who used to be a nurse,herself...). My point is, I am very happy with their response. I am sure the other agency is as competent, but please do your research first.

Thank you Nccity2002 :)

I've had NSO for years without any problems. They even back dated my policy when I was a month late on my renewal. That left me with no gap in my coverage.

I was with NSO for years but when I became a clinical nurse specialist, the yearly rate went up from about 90 a year to almost 900, and Proliability was about 600, so I went with Proliability. However, they gave me a generic nurses' policy and couldn't understand why I needed a policy that covered my new role. I really wasn't sure they understood what I was talking about. The policy said absolutely nothing about my new role, even though when I enrolled there was clearly a difference in rates between the two. Anyway, I figured if this was a problem, I should probably reconsider having their coverage and I went back to NSO without and difficulty from them.

One thing that does bother me about NSO, though, is that I get mailings from them all the time, advertising other things. I bet they spend most of what a generic nurse sends them to pay for all the mailings. I'd rather get a nice magazine once in awhile.

So far I have had a poor experience with NSO. Every time I call there is a wait and they are experiencing heavier call volumes than expected, no matter what time of day it is. I also am on Mountain time so they are closed sometimes when I have called. I leave a message and nobody calls me back. Their lack of responsiveness is concerning.
